Solomon Islands diving holidays
Discover pristine reefs and wrecks in the South Pacific
Tailor-made Solomon Islands diving holidays
Nestled in the heart of the Coral Triangle just a few degrees below the equator in the South Pacific, the Solomon Islands are home to some of the world’s finest scuba diving and snorkelling. The marine ecosystems here are spectacular, diverse and colourful. From vibrant coral reefs and towering underwater pinnacles to haunting World War II plane and ship wrecks, every dive tells a story. And the warm, crystal-clear waters provide perfect conditions for divers of all levels. Best of all this chain of almost 1000 tropical islands, close to Papua New Guinea and Australia, is mostly unexplored.
As you meander from dive site to dive site on your liveaboard adventure, you’re unlikely to encounter another boat all day. A holiday to the Solomon Islands also offers the unique chance to discover a completely different way of life. Visit local villages and get a privileged view of their traditional communities and a culture that thrives here untouched by the modern world. A Solomon Islands’ diving holiday is truly a special, once in a lifetime experience.
